There is some more detail on the bridge itself in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tpv6n1ykfA

The bridge is assembled over 2 nights at a motorway exit (so traffic can bypass it by driving off and immediately back on to the road). During night 1 the two end ramps are assembled and attached together to make a short bridge. During night 2 the ramps are driven apart, the central section is built to reach the full length and the entire structure is driven to the final location.

The entire length is 236 meters long providing a working length of 100 meters underneath. The assembled bridge can flex slightly at the joins between sections, and has a turning radius of 2 kilometers.

If you have an iPhone, the Personal Hotspot integration is surprisingly seamless, albeit not ideal.
But the word they used isn't "NPU" or "neural engine" but "AI PC"??? If I build a PC with a ton of GPU power with the intention of using that compute for machine learning then that's an "AI PC"
What you missed with WAC is a hardtime setting it up, for a result that was mediocre.
You're missing the point, abuse is bad even if the abused accepts it for whatever reason. You can achieve great things without abusing people, it's not a requirement.

Your MMA example is also missing the imbalanced power dynamic that you usually have in an abusive relationship.
I think you just gave the answer and then the question.
Interestingly, Apple still sells M1 Airs through Walmart, but not their own website.
I have an iPad that predates M1 and it's also fine. It's a media consumption device and that's about it.
I was just a cog in a machine. The mindset didn't come from me but how they setup incentives internally and ran projects. To be clear, I ended up really resenting how it works and the advice was based on my experiences with trying to care (in fact I'm trying to get out of tech entirely). I ended up channeling my care and effort into building up coworkers rather than into the company or it's products and that's how I got through it for a while. Different people had different experiences though (it's a huge company after all), anything I say about my experience is very personal.

Edit: also if Google wanted me to really care about my job more than for self interest that relationship needed to be a two way street. The relationship of the devoted employee and disinterested company is common but to me comes across as a bit pathetic. I did a good job there purely because that's how I enjoy doing my job, if the company collapsed I wouldn't have shed a single tear (that's a lie, I miss the free food)
We don't do that for household names (e.g. NVIDIA) - it's easier on the eyes not to.
The same is starting to be true for Texas as well (which is an example of great market design).

If Microsoft plans to bring a lot of new people into a Bethesda game, I hope they invest in new engine tech and QA. Old Bethesda fans know what to expect by now, but newcomers with any modern game experience are going to be in for a rude surprise if the next Fallout game ships with typical Bethesda quality.

They've had this problem with their last several releases too, but I think the TV show will make it a lot worse.
They had no problem dropping thousands, if the need was there, but they didn't suffer much, in the way of "fluff."

From what I hear, most places that have foosball tables, have about an inch of dust, on said table, because they have all their employees burning out their eyeballs.
This is fantastic news.
Hopefully the cost to manufacturers is only marginal and they find a suitable replacement for their current "each tier in RAM comes with a 5-20% price bump" pricing scheme.

Too bad apple is almost guaranteed to not adopt the standard. I miss being able to upgrade the ram in macbooks.
Since Kubrick had opportunity to respond, he was able to respond to the draft, he could have used it as opportunity to explain the censorship of the time that lead to that outcome. The article even mentions that later Kubrick tended to agree with that view of Lolita.

> What do they lose by allowing slightly more freedom in configurations?

More costs everywhere in the chain; limiting SKUs is a big efficiency from manufacturing to distribution to retail to support, and it is an easy way (for the same reason) to improve the customer experience, because it makes it a lot easier to not be out of or have delays for a customer’s preferred model, as well as making the UI (online) or physical presentation (brick and mortar) for options much cleaner.

Of course, it can feel worse if you you are a power user with detailed knowledge of your particular needs in multiple dimensions and you feel like you are paying extra for features you don't want, but the efficiencies may make that feeling an illusion — with more freedom, you would being paying for the additional costs that created, so a higher cost for the same options and possibly just as much or more for the particular combination option you would prefer with multidimensional freedom as for the one with extra features without it. Though that counterfactual is impossible to test.
Digital artist's can get a lot of use out of it, I'd assume. The Apple Pencil seems pretty nice with the iPad.
99% of people don't care about programming anything, that doesn't make this gatekeeping right.
Kids read 50x as much at times teachers were even more strict and critical of them, so clearly it's not that.

The mass availability of low effort digital entertainment options is what made the difference
How much is a 2-year old laptop worth? Because if you buy a new laptop every two years and don't even sell the old one, you're only spending $500 a year, which is less than you are now.
I understand the desire to mimic an existing tool, but I would find this feature (more specifically if it were limited to that) to be really annoying.

To me this is an example of skeuomorphism that forces an older experience into the digital one.
Yes, exactly. Instead of presenting several dozen categories, try to group them to as few as possible, and then, when the user chooses the main group, then open the drop-down with just those subgroups. Three levels max, of course, although, with clever thinking, you could probably get away with just two. For example, is this new post personal or technical? Is it about the O/S or an app? Hardware or software? And so on. On the other hand, a simple search/filter definitely helps.
I can totally imagine a future version of this that slowly moves along the roadway and handles all the roadwork automatically.
It’s a market for lemons at this point. Unless you can see an expensive apparatus or observe them soaking the coffee, there’s no way to know if it’s correct, and as a customer it means it’s risky to buy if you care about the difference between refrigerated hot coffee and cold brew.

This is most of it, right here. Home sales will be normal when interest rates are stable. If they drop, home sales will stay normal or rise, because you can "get out of your high rate loan AND upgrade" at the same time.

But now, when rates are climbing? You'll be selling your house AND your 3% mortgage to buy a ... 7% one? Since "selling your house and buying it back" would result in a larger monthly payment (swapping the loan from 3% to 7%) the first thing we should expect to see is sales slow down. After they've slowed down for awhile, the prices might begin to drop - if people need to sell.
It certainly seems less than ideal for pro/prosumer buyers who care about the chips inside.

I would guess that Apple doesn't love it either; one suspects that the weird release cycle is at least partially related to availability of chips and other components.
Haha I'd this feeling and add another people which doesn't fully adapt to remote, screaming and justifying that the CEO or someone required the open cam!

yup, a bare repo. its the easiest way I think.
Controversial is underselling it. "Just break things for users to try and get them to give up the working thing and move to our half-baked replacement" is everything that's wrong with Wayland.

The good part is that if you start early with a good design, it's fairly clear how to move from views to a REST API (DRF or Django-ninja) later and split the front end if you need to.
The technicality they're operating on is that the "AI PC" doesn't have a "neural processing unit."

Yet another person who does not understand what free speech means.

Proprietary platforms moderating user content on themselves is not an infringement of the users free speech rights. Proprietary platforms are not public spaces, they are private property and guests (users) have to abide by the house rules or be kicked out.
Seriously. This is why I don't like how much knowledge is being locked up in video platforms. I can get what I need to know from text so much faster than video unless the knowledge in question is inherently 3d/visual.

N3E still has a +9% logic transistor density increase on N3 despite a relaxation to design rules, for reasons such as introduction of FinFlex.[1] Critically though, SRAM cell sizes remain the same as N5 (reversing the ~5% reduction in N3), and it looks like the situation with SRAM cell sizes won't be improving soon.[2][3] It appears more likely that designers particularly for AI chips will just stick with N5 as their designs are increasingly constrained by SRAM.

I think you're missing the point. Xorg would have broken in every way Wayland has, and far worse, had it not been consuming all of the resources that should have gone into Wayland. Xorg is like a 1987 Hyundai Excel held together with duct tape, being replaced with a 2008 Toyota Yaris. With people complaining the Yaris has smaller cargo space, so we clearly need 7 more rolls of duct tape.
I dont know who you are hanging out with but I really don't think people use "consumer" like that. You would end up removing like 90% of the most forceful critique of capitalism in general if "consumer" was something voluntary rather than coerced. It really wouldn't make any sense! That line of thinking sounds much more neoliberal than anything else, with the emphasis on the individual and their right/wrong behavior in the market.
I sure hope they are testing the people better now.

Which is why only independent contractors can safely pull it off, and even then not always.

The correct test is targeted error injection. Make the thing a bit flaky see who complains or notices.
Fan favorite is explicitly laggy or busted routers in the path for networked hardware.
It's still not without risks, crappy old glue or scripts tend to fail catastrophically. So as usual, backups and spares. Documentation before messing with the thing...

Generally also found that it is safer to send excess garbage downstream from the putative server than induce outages.
Spam gets quick results.
Assumes of course you know what it is supposed to send... Or that garbage sent from there will get noticed.

I have had an iPhone since 2012 and an Apple laptop since they were called PowerBooks. I am often in road warrior mode. No, it is not seamless. I have to restart it quite often. It is nowhere near as convenient and always on like it is with my Apple Watch and iPhone and iPad. And it burns two batteries at once.

I am convinced that it is the Qualcomm royalty situation that keeps Apple from shipping a cellular modem like Dell does.
Cold brew is much less acidic, and I find warmed cold brew to be exceptionally smooth compared with hot brew. I got my recipe from a NYT interview with the CEO (I think?) of Blue Bottle, though I've since lost the link. This is my copy:

>Don't know why this is on HN but anyways

Well, for starters because HN is not just for programming and startups, things are on HN because they're upvoted (or sometime because it's some YC promotion), and anything that tingles our intellectual curiosity will do (it's even in the site's guidelines).

> I always say I want AI to work offline

I'm with you, I'm most excited about this too.

Currently building an AI creative studio (make stories, art, music, videos, etc.) that runs locally/offline (https://github.com/bennyschmidt/ragdoll-studio). There is a lot of focus on cloud with LLMs but I can't see how the cost will make much sense for involved creative apps like video creation, etc. Present day users might not have high-end machines, but I think they all will pretty soon - this will make them buy them the way MMORPGs made everyone buy more RAM. Especially the artists and creators. Remember, Photoshop was once pretty difficult to run, you needed a great machine.

I can imagine offline music/movies apps, offline search engines, back office software, etc.
The text clearly states faster than any AI PC, not that its faster than any NPUs integrated into a CPU.

They could have written it correctly, but that sounds way less impressive, so instead they make up shit to make it sound very impressive.
Also, in my experience heating the coffee in microwave increase perceived acidity even more. Which kind of make sense with this explaination as there could be pockets of superheated water when it is microwaved.

100% this.

School largely ruined my interest in reading until I became an adult and re-found it.

Being regularly told to read boring books, of course any interest in doing it casually was going to go out the Window.

Sure there is value in needing to read certain things from an academic standpoint, Beowulf is a good example. But there was zero reason I needed to read "The Outsiders" when we just watched the movie after reading it anyways.

Just because something is a classic, doesn't mean we have to consume it in its original form to get the meaning.

Instead fill the library with a diverse collection of books, let the kid choose what they want to read, don't rush them, and importantly if it just isn't working let them move on to a new book.

Side note:

I know some people are going to groan at this. But seriously, books based on video games can be a fantastic gateway towards actually caring about reading. It is how I re-discovered by interest in reading as an adult.
This. I find myself tremendously bored watching most videos online these days, scrubbing through to find things that are of interest. There's just so much filler and even when it's not, the information density is very low.

In the meantime, along with reading, I also have longreads in my RSS reader, so every evening I get a few fantastic long form online articles and feel pretty well connected to what's going on.
Might be true in Detroit or something. Usually there's a qualifier, like 40% of non-owner-occupied housing is unoccupied, and in the area that's 1% of houses or something.

(As a baseline, rentals are assumed to be unoccupied 10-20% of the time - so the total number of dwelling units in an area would be (number of owner occupied) + (number of remaining families) + (10% of remaining families) or so).
I mean, I remember Apple comparing the M1 Ultra to Nvidia's RTX 3090. While that chart was definitely putting a spin on things to say the least, and we can argue from now until tomorrow about whether power consumption should or should not be equalised, I have no idea why anyone would expect the M1 Pro (an explicitly much weaker chip) to perform anywhere near the same.

Also what games are you trying to play on it? All my M-series Macbooks have run games more than well enough with reasonable settings (and that has a lot more to do with OS bugs and the constraints of the form factor than with just the chipset).

Ahh and I thought the forever-construction sites were a Swiss thing. Every 20 km or so you'd have 1-2 km of road construction signage where nothing happens for a couple of years. At some point it just disappears, to come up again a few km down the road. Nobody here to explain us the phenomenon?
Fortnite has had a single release and is a free to play game. Once again, if you're going to point out games that just come out with a new version to sell it again, you're failing to show accurate examples.

Of all the non-metric units in use today, watt-hours has to be the worst. It causes so much confusion. A Pulitzer Prize winning institution reporting on our climate and energy crisis can’t get it right:

Gigajoules were right there!
I genuinely don't grok who is buying iPad Pros; outside of maybe artists & graphic designers? Maybe? But even there, wacomb-like tablets on Mac is still super popular, and the iPad Air in a bigger size is going to be crazy popular.

A 13" iPad Pro with keyboard is $1650. And you can't even get the nanotexture glass below 1TB; so that + keyboard is approaching $2300.

Who is buying this?
The pros almost always outweigh the cons these days though for any sizeable project. This may not have been historically true when the performance of IDEs and compilers was worse, but it certainly is true today. I've spent most of my career in dynamic languages but have spent the last year and a half or so strictly in strongly-typed languages. There's a night and day difference in crashes/reliability, refactor-ability, and tooling. Dynamic languages shove all of your validation into runtime where you may or my not be looking when failures occur and refactors are fucking nerve wracking because it's impossible to know if something really doesn't rely on that function or not. Tests can fill this gap, but that's a lot of additional code you now have to write and maintain and refactor and run in your slow af CI pipelines.
That stuff makes it more difficult to work on, but it doesn't make it impossible for Apple to sell replacement motherboards... nor does making a "thin desktop" require soldering on SSDs, M.2 SSDs are plenty thin for any small form factor desktop use case.
I remember that Apple used to wave around these SIMD benchmarks showing their PowerPC chips trouncing Intel chips. In the fine print, you'd see that the benchmark was built to use AltiVec on PowerPC, but without MMX or SSE on Intel.
Right, I already have a spouse. Unlike a random box of algorithms, our relationship creates a whole stack of mutual incentives so I know I can trust her output. She's not going to slowly start rebooking all my meetings to take place at Starbucks because they wrote her a check.

No they're not. If you're in San Fransisco for instance, a 12 hour drive maybe gets you to LA, Vegas, and maybe salt lake city. It can't even get you to Seattle or Phoenix. Meanwhile even if you factor in getting to the airport 3 hours before departure, 1 hour to get to the airport, and 1 hour to get to your final destination, that leaves you with 7 hours of flight time. That's enough for a direct flight anywhere in the lower 48 states, and as well as many cities in Canada and Mexico.
